The DF is such a hideous monster because they stick to this idea that a digital camera has to have an external button or dial for every function. If the ISO and shutter dial remained as it is on the old FMs and FEs, replace the rewind know with mode and a small dial on the back for aperture control on G lenses but allow for ring adjustment on all other lenses it would rock.
Every other function could be controlled through menus with a minimal number of buttons on the back with the screen. or even less if they went with a touch screen.
